you can say I’m a dreamer ,
but not that I am unrealistic .
You can say that I don’t know what I’m doing ,
but not that I’m crazy .
You can say that I’m young , insecure , tired ,
but not that I’m depressed .
You can say that I’m independent ,
but not that I am alone .
Don ‘t act like you know me , you don ‘t ,
but I do and I am happy .

I 'm tired of people acting like they know , when in reality they only know what I tell them .
